STICKY POST

Thank You, Mom

, ,




You gave me life. You gave me love.
You gave me wings.

How can I ever begin to tell you how important
you are to my life. You are my confidante, my teacher,
my friend. Everything I am is because of you.

You gave me a world adorned with sunbeams and castles
in the sand. You gave me time to dream and reason
to believe in myself. You were always there to cheer
me on and to wrap me in hugs when I needed it the
most. You taught me compassion and courage and how to
love.

You gave of yourself so freely and expected nothing in return.
For this and more, I will be forever grateful.

You gave me what I needed in life to learn and grow into the
person I am today. I want you to always know that no matter
where I go or what I do in life, I will never forget the lessons
you taught me and the wings you gave me to fly.

I want you to remember that I will always be there for you.
I will always take care of you

I will always love you.

A Mother's Prayer

, ,



In the quiet of the night
I watch you sleep.

As I tuck you in and
savor the gentle sounds
I glance through the window
and whisper out loud.

God, have I been the Mother
You wanted me to be.
Have I held my children up
and taught them to see.

Have I shown them that
love should always be shared.
Have I taught them compassion
and reasons to care.

Have I explained the values
by which You want us to live.
Have I taught them humility
and reasons to give.

Have I shown them that life
can't always be fair.
Have I taught them that
You will always be there.

As I glance through the window
You help me to see
That I am being the best Mother
that I can possibly be.
